Bullsh*t! She neither sent nor received any classified emails!
She said so...
Well duh. Just cross out the “CLASSIFIED” heading and your good to go. Helldabama will back you up on that.
“We can’t talk about them.”
They might embarrass her and cost her some votes from the handful of willful idiots who still intend to vote for her.
“...until after she’s in the White House.”
And then, of course, “We’ll have to invoke Executive Privilege and... We can’t talk about them.”
More hillary boosters playing CYA.
>> I CAN TO A CERTAIN EXTENT. I CANNOT PROVIDE A CERTAIN SEGMENT OF THEM BECAUSE THE AGENCY THAT OWNS THE INFORMATION FOR THOSE EMAILS HAS LIMITED THE DISTRIBUTION ON THOSE, SO THEY ARE CHARACTERIZING THEM AS OR ORCON.
>> EXPLAIN THAT.
>> ORIGINATOR CONTROL. I CAN'T GIVE THEM TO YOU WITHOUT AGENCY'S PERMISSION TO PROVIDE YOU.
>> WHICH AGENCY?
>> I CAN'T SAY THAT IN OPEN HEARING, SIR.
>> YOU CAN'T EVEN TELL ME WHICH AGENCY WON'T ALLOW US AS MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO SEE SOMETHING THAT HILLARY CLINTON ALLOWED SOMEBODY WITHOUT A SECURITY CLEARANCE IN A NONPROTECTIVE FORMAT TO SEE, IS THAT CORRECT?
>> THIS IS THE SEGMENT OF EMAILS -- THIS IS WHY MY LETTER BACK TO RANKING MEMBER CUMMINGS HAD TO BE CLASSIFIED BECAUSE PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS SEGMENT OF EMAILS AND THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE NOT JUST WITH YOU AND YOUR COMMITTEE BUT WITH SEVERAL MEMBERS AT THIS POINT. SO WE HAVE GONE BACK TO THE AGENCY THAT IS INVOLVED SEVERAL TIMES AND WE CAN CERTAINLY DO THAT AGAIN AND ASK PERMISSION.
>> CAN YOU GENERALLY TELL ME -- BECAUSE THEY ARE SO SENSITIVE ABOUT SIGNALS INTELLIGENCE, HUMAN INTELLIGENCE? WHAT?
>> WE SHOULDN'T GET INTO THE CONTENT OF THESE EMAILS IN AN OPEN HEARING.
>> OKAY. I DON'T WANT TO VIOLATE THAT BUT THE CONCERN IS IT HAS ALREADY BEEN VIOLATED AND WAS VIOLATED BY HILLARY CLINTON AND IT WAS HER CHOICE, SHE SET IT UP AND SHE CREATE THIS PROBLEM AND SHE CREATED THIS MESS. WE SHOWN HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS BUT SHE DID THAT.
>> THIS IS THE SEGMENT OF EMAILS THAT I HAD TO HAVE PEOPLE IN MY OFFICE WRITE INTO PARTICULAR PROGRAMS TO SEE THESE EMAILS. WE DIDN'T POSSESS THE REQUIRED CLEARANCES.
>> EVEN THE INSPECTOR GENERAL DIDN'T HAVE THE CLEARANCE?
>> YES.
>> UNBELIEVABLE. WHAT A MESS. I'LL YIELD BACK. JUDGE FROM MARYLAND,

This bullsqueeze would stop if Chaffetz would say: “This panel holds you in contempt. You will be held in custody until such time as you are prepared to provide the people with the information requested.”
Should apply to any person in the employee of the government who are brought before the people’s house to testify about the work they are doing for their employer.
Does anyone think that a Democrat controlled congress would allow this type of circle jerk nonsense to thwart their investigation? No, they would lower the boom on anyone who resisted. The Republicans just roll over every time. Its really pathetic how weak they are.
That’s really some TOP SECRET yoga, eh?
Covering for Obama, plain and simple.
Please clarify the date of this hearing, thanks.
Nothing will come of it. The media will bury it. A brain-dead public will go back to obsessing on creepy clowns.
Is there a spy agency on this planet that doesn’t know about it?
Good GRIEF!
Not allowed to speak about it?
Well at least this: congressional immunity, Section VI. I’d like to see a treason case for quoting public record.
But Hillary said that none of her emails were classified at the time she sent them. But, then again, she also said that she didn’t know what C stood for stamped on the front of documents.
“I can’t release the emails to Congress without getting the agency that owns the content to approve the release”
“what agency is that?”
“That’s classified. I can’t tell you that.”
“Give me some broad idea why they are classified. Do they cover SIGINT? HUMINT?”
“That’s classified and I cannot get into that in an open hearing”
“Oh boy, what a mess. We shouldn’t have to be holding this hearing. And Hillary Clinton is the reason we are here.”
STRING HER UP!!!
Yoga and childcare emails are THAT secret? For democrat-liberals-progressives, NONE of this matters. They will vote for Hillary in lock-step mindless support for the continuing policies of free stuff, sexualizing our children, murdering the unborn, open borders without vetting/screening, forcing religious institutions to violate their principles and tenets, pursuing endless undeclared wars up to and including nuclear exchanges because, well, republicans are mean.
The joke is that all the governments that matter have the hackers that procured the e mails and there is no need to try to still keep them secret
the fact they are secret is fiction since everybody but the US Congress already has them
It is too bad the name is already taken because the Republicans should change their name to the Washington Generals.
UGGGG! Just PUT the WITCH on the GALLOWS and HAVE THE AXMAN CHOP!
LOL! Check$ and Balance$??? What constitution?
The most important question that was ever proposed to your decision, or to the decision of any people under heaven, is before you, and you are to decide upon it by men of your own election, chosen specially for this purpose. If the constitution, offered to your acceptance, be a wise one, calculated to preserve the invaluable blessings of liberty, to secure the inestimable rights of mankind, and promote human happiness, then, if you accept it, you will lay a lasting foundation of happiness for millions yet unborn; generations to come will rise up and call you blessed. You may rejoice in the prospects of this vast extended continent becoming filled with freemen, who will assert the dignity of human nature. You may solace yourselves with the idea, that society, in this favoured land, will fast advance to the highest point of perfection; the human mind will expand in knowledge and virtue, and the golden age be, in some measure, realised. But if, on the other hand, this form of government contains principles that will lead to the subversion of liberty if it tends to establish a despotism, or, what is worse, a tyrannic aristocracy; then, if you adopt it, this only remaining assylum for liberty will be shut up, and posterity will execrate your memory.
Momentous then is the question you have to determine, and you are called upon by every motive which should influence a noble and virtuous mind, to examine it well, and to make up a wise judgment. It is insisted, indeed, that this constitution must be received, be it ever so imperfect. If it has its defects, it is said, they can be best amended when they are experienced. But remember, when the people once part with power, they can seldom or never resume it again but by force. Many instances can be produced in which the people have voluntarily increased the powers of their rulers; but few, if any, in which rulers have willingly abridged their authority. This is a sufficient reason to induce you to be careful, in the first instance, how you deposit the powers of government.
So far therefore as its powers reach, all ideas of confederation are given up and lost. It is true this government is limited to certain objects, or to speak more properly, some small degree of power is still left to the states, but a little attention to the powers vested in the general government, will convince every candid man, that if it is capable of being executed, all that is reserved for the individual states must very soon be annihilated, except so far as they are barely necessary to the organization of the general government. The powers of the general legislature extend to every case that is of the least importance there is nothing valuable to human nature, nothing dear to freemen, but what is within its power. It has authority to make laws which will affect the lives, the liberty, and property of every man in the United States; nor can the constitution or laws of any state, in any way prevent or impede the full and complete execution of every power given. The legislative power is competent to lay taxes, duties, imposts, and excises; there is no limitation to this power
And are by this clause invested with the power of making all laws, proper and necessary, for carrying all these into execution; and they may so exercise this power as entirely to annihilate all the state governments, and reduce this country to one single government. And if they may do it, it is pretty certain they will; for it will be found that the power retained by individual states, small as it is, will be a clog upon the wheels of the government of the United States; the latter therefore will be naturally inclined to remove it out of the way. Besides, it is a truth confirmed by the unerring experience of ages, that every man, and every body of men, invested with power, are ever disposed to increase it, and to acquire a superiority over every thing that stands in their way. This disposition, which is implanted in human nature, will operate in the federal legislature to lessen and ultimately to subvert the state authority, and having such advantages, will most certainly succeed, if the federal government succeeds at all.
